Flying so high I'm like a bird calling.
Soaring so free I cannot see.
Coming to terms with all my ghosts haunting.
I am not what you believe.
****
If I went further than a time could take me,
Would I stick to the edge of life?
Corrupt my mind to find a new meaning.
Bring it back to stay alive.
****
Salvage what I know of no value.
Listen to the answers fade.
Secretly they all take refuge
From the arduous parade.

Listen. Hear waves on the
Island of you mind.
Words play tricks on your
Vision of life.

Worlds of words are(.) all you've
Known(.) is your thoughts here.
Unplug your space from the
Ether they described.
Flood yourself with what you
Know to be right.
****
Growing up in the eyes of all the fallen.
Coming too close to be unknown.
Falling so high up in the minds of dead men.
Slipping toward tangential growth.
        Better call now before I'm too lost.
        We're going all the way down.

Garnering souls of near sighted nature,
Pushing them toward a higher peak.
Felling them down from their plateau of safety,
So they can find the things they seek.
        If they should fall down, just let them go;
        They need to be on their own.

Had to come back to save at least someone,
Or I'd be up here all alone.
Reaching in further than our hearts were meant for;
Once destitute, our minds unfold.

****
Can we deconstruct our values
Into something more alive?
Wander with the fear of opposition.
Wander in the hopes of life.

I am not what you believe in,
And I am not what you believe me to be.
Belief is cloudy in the skies of progress;
Science flees mendacity.
        Listen; hear waves on the
        Island of you mind.
        Sound plays tricks on your
        Vision of life.

High atop a ridge I have fallen.
Crumble down to where I lay.
Bring myself to a new condition.
Lead the melody away.
        Worlds of words are(.) all you've
        Known(.) is your thoughts here.
        Unplug your space from the
Ether they described.

Flood yourself with what you,
Know to be right.
